During this review, Dr. Bishop will discuss the background of this film, including its origins and inspirations. He will explore the role of voodoo in this movie and whether it’s a Horror film at all. Dr. Walking Dead also places this movie in context for its importance among the re-animated annals of zombie cinema, and he also touches on the film’s depictions of racism. Listen to find out whether Dr. Walking Dead recommends “I Walked With a Zombie,” or whether he will regard it as mere filmic detritus…

Movement is life! Welcome to the Third Edition of DEAD MAN STILL WALKING, where Dr. Walking Dead dares you to explore the depths of depravity found in this year’s notorious zombie flick, The Sadness (2022), a new Horror film from Taiwan written and directed by Rob Jabbaz. Dr. Bishop addresses the gore and violence and whether it is excessively or unnecessarily gratuitous. He describes how this new film fits into both 20th century and 21st century zombie narratives. Is “The Sadness” also a Romance? Is it an “Anti-Romance”? Is this film original or derivative? What other zombie narratives, if any, serve as influences? Kyle Bishop answers these questions and discusses the distinctions between “gluttonous zombies” and “wrath zombies” / “lust zombies.” In the beginning of his review, Dr. Bishop discusses some very mild, premise-based “spoilers.” But after providing a spoiler warning, he eventually covers full-blown spoilers for “The Sadness.” Listen!

In this Second Edition of DEAD MAN STILL WALKING, Dr. Walking Dead beckons you to explore the very first of the essential zombie films of our time, White Zombie (1932). Directed by Victor Halperin and starring screen Horror legend Bela Lugosi, “White Zombie” gives us the first-ever onscreen zombies. Dr. Walking Dead Kyle Bishop discusses this important film’s historical significance and context (as well as its problems). Kyle also talks about this movie’s ethnographic fidelity, includes some minor analysis and gives us the moral of the story. Also in Episode 015,, Dr. Bishop brings us a quick overview of a few, less significant zombie films of the 1930s and ‘40s, including “Ouanga” (1935), “Revolt of the Zombie” (1936), “The Ghost Breakers” (1940), “King of the Zombies” (1941) and “Bowery at Midnight” (1942).
